    I always look forward to Super Bowl Sunday. And I'll admit, I'm usually much more interested in the commercials and the food than the game. Then again, anytime it's not frowned upon to have appetizers and snack-food for supper, I'm down!

    These mini pretzel dogs are perfect for game day. It's like being at the game and getting a big 'ol pretzel dog, but in mini form! They're easy to make, have few ingredients and everyone will love them - kids and adults alike!

    • Little Smokies
    • Water
    • Baking Soda
    • Egg Yolk
    • Coarse Salt

    How to make Mini Pretzel Dogs

    1. Unroll the crust.
    2. Cut the crust into 40 strips (see photo below).
    3. Roll the each of the little smokies up in a piece of dough.
    4. Make the water + baking soda mixture and dip each of the mini pretzel dogs into the water. Let excess water drip off and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

    What to dip Mini Pretzel Dogs in?

    I'm a ketchup and mustard girl. However, if you want to get a little more creative, a Spicy Nacho Cheese Sauce or a Chili Cheese Dip would make these more like Chili Cheese Pretzel Dogs!! You just can't go wrong!

    Game Day Appetizers

    Like I said before, good food makes any game day better! I always like to have a few savory options like meatballs and Pizza Dip, but also love having something to satisfy my sweet tooth. Puppy Chow and Scotcheroos are two of my go-to easy sweet recipes for game day!
